♥ My Thoughts: I would read the book by the cover alone. The look on her face, the crow and the pair of scissors in her hand, is enough of a mystery to make you want to dive in . However, finding out that it is a Nutcracker retelling, calls to the timeless feel and nostalgia of the the Holidays, leaving me wanting for a good cup of tea and cookies or a tall glass of eggnog.
